Refer to the following letter, number and symbol series and answer the question that follows. (Counting to be done from left to right only. All numbers are single-digit numbers only.) (Left) 4 G @ H J * P R % 7 E & L T 5 $ 6 ! 3 M # (Right) How many such symbols are there, each of which is immediately preceded by a letter and also immediately followed by a number?

The correct answer is

One

Series (left → right): 4 G @ H J * P R % 7 E & L T 5 $ 6 ! 3 M #.

Look for symbols whose immediate left neighbour is a letter AND immediate right neighbour is a number.

% (9th position): left R (letter), right 7 (number) — qualifies.

All other symbols fail on at least one side: @ and * have letters on both sides; & has letters on both sides; $ (16th) has T on the left but 6 on the right — wait, left of $ is T (letter), right is 6 (number) — recheck: position 15 is 5 (number), position 16 is $, so $ has a number on its left, not a letter. ! (18th) has 5 on its left. # is at the end, no number on its right.

Only one symbol qualifies.

Hence, the answer is One.
